Sometime around 2005, I was over at Jason Lawless' place and he handed me a cd that just had a plain orange sticker and the words "A Sweet Serenade" written on it. "What's this?" I asked. "I'm putting out and acoustic ska and reggae compilation, and these are the rough demo's." Jason replied.…

WSR Episode 19: Ska History Month: The 90's
One of my favorite books as a kid was "Flowers For Algernon" by Daniel Keyes, in particular the idea of The Algernonic Curve or The Algernon Effect. If you've never read the book, you should...for the book is a perfect allegory for the American ska scene in the 90's. The 1990's would see ska hit...
